Ya Devi Sarvabhuteshu Ma Kalaratri Rupena Samsthita? Namastasyai Namastasyai Namastasyai Namo Namah?

Maa Kaalratri Aarti with Lyrics in English

Kalaratri jay-jay-mahakali.

Kal ke muh se bachane vali.

Dusht sangharak nam tumhara.

Mahachandi tera avatar.

Prthvi aur akash pe sara.

Mahakali hai tera pasara.

Khadag khappar rakhane vali.

Dushton ka lahoo chakhane vali.

Kalakatta sthan tumhara.

Sab jagah dekhoon tera najara.

Sabhi devata sab nar-nari.

Gaven stuti sabhi tumhari.

Raktadanta aur annapoorna.

Krpa kare to koi bhi duhkh na.

Na koi chinta rahe bimari.

Na koi gam na sankat bhari.

Us par kabhi kasht na aven.

Mahakali man jise bachabe.

Too bhi bhakt prem se kah.

Kalaratri man teri jay.
